The Walking Dead: 8 Characters Who Will Die Before The End Of Season 6

4. Carol

Considering the fact that her comic book counterpart was arguably one of the series' weakest characters, it's amazing that Carol has fared so well in the TV show, quickly becoming a well-deserved fan-favourite and a bona fide badass. However, The Walking Dead has a habit of killing off those we love, and that alone makes Carol a very likely candidate to not make it out of Season 6 alive. Her death would be a massive loss to the show, but it would also mean that another character is given the chance to step up and shine the way she has in recent years. Rick being killed off in the near future would be a huge blunder, but if he's a character we know is always going to be safe, it's essential that The Walking Dead doesn't fall into the trap of having several survivors who they'll never put in true peril. I wouldn't expect Carol to die as soon as the midseason premiere, but her falling victim to Negan or the herd somewhere down the line isn't remotely hard to picture. The first half of the season has been surprisingly low on big name casualties, and while Glenn's apparent death stirred up controversy, that would no doubt pale in comparison to the reaction to the demise of someone as beloved as Carol.
